Han Yi glanced over with a raised eyebrow at the source of the voice, recognizing Liu Heng, the defeated head of the Liu family from the day before.

“It’s you.”

Han Yi shifted his gaze away from the resentful face of Liu Heng, scanning the other twelve people with a faint golden gleam in his eyes. Under the Qi Observation Skill, the aura of these people was fully visible to him.

Among the twelve, four were at the ninth level of Qi cultivation, with one being slightly stronger than Liu Heng, not quite at the peak of this level but not far off. The other three at this level were average, and the remaining eight had achieved the eighth level of Qi cultivation.

It was a formidable lineup.

Unlike Liu Heng, the other twelve had a special quality to them that Han Yi was familiar with from his encounter years ago in the outer peak market. Considering the situation at hand, the answer was clear.

Robbing cultivators.

These eleven people were a group of professional robbing cultivators.

“Liu Heng, is this the guy who spoiled your plan?”

“He looks like a Qi cultivation seventh level. Are you joking with me?”

Among the twelve was a man with a fierce face and a bear-like frame. He cast an unsatisfied glance at Liu Heng, causing the resentful man to feel a sudden shock inside.

This man was the one among the twelve with an aura slightly stronger than Liu Heng’s.

“Brother Zheng, I wouldn’t dare deceive you. This guy must have a device to conceal his aura on him. He might seem like a Qi cultivation seventh level, but he is definitely at the ninth level of cultivation. Otherwise, he couldn’t have killed Tang Xiangyu.”

Liu Heng’s face turned fearful, knowing that collaborating with this group of robbing cultivators was akin to seeking skin from a tiger. Yet the Spirit Field of the Luo family was of great concern to him, and with the secret now revealed, he would rather die than remain indifferent to it.

“A device to conceal one’s aura? That deep? That’s rare.”

“However, even with such a device, he couldn’t possibly be a Foundation Establishment Cultivator. Liu Heng, didn’t you say you had an expert with you? Why did you still lose? Are there any hidden circumstances?”

The fierce-looking cultivator’s face contorted as he thoughtfully looked at Liu Heng, sending chills down his spine.

This group of robbing cultivators was far from ordinary, with a strictly organized network behind them that even rumored to include Foundation Establishment cultivators.

To obtain the Luo family’s Spirit Field, he risked it all and paid a heavy price to establish connections with this group, and now, even if he was regretful, it was too late.

“Brother Zheng, there’s absolutely no hidden information. I swear to the heavens, I really invited an expert, but that heavenly will sect cultivator refused to make any effort. I was furious and wanted to kill him as well.”

Upon recalling that scene, Liu Heng gritted his teeth with anger still bubbling within him.

“Haha, Heavenly Will Sect cultivator? How ridiculous! Liu Heng, you actually sought help from a Heavenly Will Sect cultivator. During that time, didn’t he keep chanting about everything being in accordance with the heavenly will?” The fierce-looking man turned to laugh loudly, but there was not a hint of humor in his eyes; instead, they gleamed dangerously, making Liu Heng’s face change again. Just as he was about to explain, the man turned back to face him again.

“Anyway, I still believe you. It’s not like you would dare deceive me.”

“Let’s kill this troublemaker first. Since Luo Zhiguang could escape from my grasp, I don’t think this kid has that kind of skill.”

Meanwhile…

As soon as the people appeared, Han Yi was on high alert, not taking any chances.

However, the information revealed in the conversation between Liu Heng and the fierce-looking man was significant, causing Han Yi to be both vigilant and shaken.

“So, Liu Heng actually colluded with these robbing cultivators to ambush Luo Zhiguang, the head of the Luo family, in a plot to seize their Spirit Field.” “Then, the Liu family began pressuring the Luo family, and during this period, the Tang family, who had learned of the news, wanted to get a share of it as well.”

“Subsequently, the Daqian Sky Bureau intervened and ruled that the three families would prepare for a competition. Luo Yunzhou invited me, while Liu Heng, just to be on the safe side, invited the Heavenly Will Sect’s Zhao Li, whom he had met by chance. The Tang family, on the other hand, believed they were strong enough and didn’t invite anyone, especially since they were just a family established by loose cultivators, with a shallow foundation.” “As a result, I killed Tang Xiangyu, and Heavenly Will Sect’s Zhao Li, firmly believing in the heavenly will, only made a single move before departing unexpectedly.”

All of the above suppositions matched with Liu Heng’s words and should be the truth.

However, Han Yi was not interested in family feuds, like those between the Luo, Liu, and Tang families, or the Spirit Field.

What he lacked most was time. He just wanted to return to Azure Dragon Peak as soon as possible to continue his training, improving his skills to the next level and cultivating his realm to the eighth level of Qi cultivation.

Having assessed the situation, the fierce-looking man turned back around, his gaze settling on Han Yi.

Han Yi no longer hesitated.

He noticed that the formation covering a hundred meters around them was a shielding array, similar to the Concealment Spirit Array but with a larger range and higher grade. He guessed it to be a first-stage high-grade auxiliary Spirit Array.

For robbing cultivators, Han Yi’s attitude had always been very firm: kill them. So, he didn’t waste any more time and launched the first attack.

This time, there was no strategy – it was a pure battle of strength.

Since the enemy didn’t even have a peak ninth-level cultivator, there was nothing to fear. Moreover, as he was now within the array, it was best to kill everyone quickly in case the formation changed.

After facing the halberd-wielding cultivator in the Evil Mountain Range, this was the first time Han Yi had gone all out – and this time, he had an additional top-grade magic weapon, the Shadow Bearing Sword.

However, he didn’t use the sword first.

Instead, with a flick of his arm, four daggers rose into the air.

A hazy circle of red flames flickered around them, tinting the daggers a faint shade of blood.

As the daggers took flight,

“How bold!”

The fierce-looking man shouted, his eyes wide like lanterns and shimmering with a crimson hue.

“Kill him!”

But just as his words fell, he saw a dagger disappear 20 meters away and instantly reappear in front of him, seemingly teleporting.

In his crimson eyes, the fierce air had not yet dissipated, but was suddenly replaced with horror.

“So fast.”

However, having been a robbing cultivator for so long, he excelled in fighting and self-preservation.

The dagger was incredibly fast, but still slower than his thoughts.

In an instant, a dark glow emerged from the black wristguard he wore, enveloping his entire body in the blink of an eye..
